Miami Heat: Would LeBron James have more titles had he stayed?

Miami Heat: Would LeBron James have more titles had he stayed?

Let’s look back at the NBA landscape during the 2014-15 NBA season. The emergence of Stephen Curry as a two-time MVP helped make the Golden State Warriors an NBA dynasty.

He would lead them to two consecutive NBA Finals appearances. With LeBron returning to the Miami Heat, the team would have been able to reach the NBA Finals as well.

It is unlikely that the Heat would win two years in a row against the Warriors though.

However, the talented Heat team could have pulled off, at least, one championship run here.

Which year would be more likely? Probably 2015, because the Warriors won 73 games in 2016.

In 2015, LeBron James and the Cavaliers lost to Golden State in six games, but Cleveland was dealing with injuries to two of its best players, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. If James would have had the help of Wade and Bosh there, as he had in years priors, it would have likely been a different story.
